Abstract

John R. Hicks set out in his book 'Causality in Economics' primarily to refute Hume's Principles of Causality (i.e. Cause always necessarily precedes effect) by introducing a new concept 'Contemporaneous Causality.' This paper attempts to show that Hume's Principle of Causality still holds good in all cases and evaluates Hicks' Contemporaneous Causality besides discussing five of Hicks' observations.
